Tuesday Update

Oh my! I just now realized that I haven't posted for a week! It's just been sort of hectic around here, it's taking me until now to get back into the swing of things. I don't know why, but I feel as if I've been a little, hmm, how should I say, lazy! I have been knitting, but a little slower, I hurt my wrist a couple of weeks back doing something stupid (picking up my tote bag off the floor of the car) and that's slowed me down a bit. I never realized how much we use our wrists/hands for things! I have been working on this hat, in a nice red, Cascade 220 wool. It's slow going because of the small needles, and I'm still not sure if it's going to fit my head! And then last night I decided that I would cast on a sweater for me from the Vogue Knitting Fall 2007 issue -- pattern #8 for those who want to dig into their magazine stash and see. I haven't knitted a sweater for me in a long, long time (see here), or so it seems, but that one was all one piece and pretty basic. A new year, time to expand my knitting! (I'm planning a Central Park Hoodie, too! But I need to find/buy the right yarn!)
